Controllers and Music services

Hello, today I bought Sonos Play:1. It's really perfect but I have a question. Using Spotify Premium and I want to control volume up / volume down via Apple Keyboard. And another question: is there any way to listen sound from YouTube (Safari) too? Any way to do that? Thank you.

I understand how to control the volume from my computer (MacBook Air) using the Sonos Control App. But how do I control the volume in different rooms by using the mobile App. When rooms are grouped and I use the App on my iPhone, using the phone's volume control moves the volume in each room up and down equally. Is there a method to change the volume in selected rooms that are grouped like I can do on my computer?

I currently own an EA3 controller from C4 and the Sonos Connect, as well as the playbar and play 1 for two separate zones. The C4 does my 5.1 living room, and a zone in the patio, and one in the master bath run on a Pioneer Elite SC 91 AVR. All of these are hardwired and can currently be grouped together. The Playbar and Play 1 can be grouped together themselves, but not in tandem with the other three zones mentioned above. I am trying to connect all 5 zones that they can play the same source (ie Pandora) at the same time as we move through different zones of the house. Currently they can all do separate instances of Pandora and other digital music. I purchased the Sonos Connect in hopes it would hold hands with the C4 to bridge this gap. I am not sure whether the C4 should go to an input on the Sonos Connect or if the SC should be an input onto the C4. The Playbar and Play 1 are connected as a zone in C4 via IP addresses currently. I suppose there is a possibility the SC ca

I have a pair of Sonos Play 5's in stereo pair. They sound really good. However, i noticed there is a concert hall echo like effect on them in the signature of the sound. I kind of like that effect to be less... especially for the vocals. With the stereo pair in horizontal position, the effect is the strongest. I like the sound stage in horizontal position a lot, but the concert hall echo is strongest in this mode. With the stereo pair in vertical position, the effect is still there but far less. But the sound stage is not as enjoyable in vertical position. I have a pair of Play 3s in stereo also, and I do not have this concert hall like sound signature. They also sound great, btw. Can I do anything about that concert hall sound effect on the Play 5s? Or any setting I am missing? Anyone else notice this effect or is it just me?

Any Sonos coders/ app developers on this community?

Dear Ryan S, In the Sonos announcement, CR100 owners were offered two options:- 1 - Stop using the CR100 or 2 - Stay with the current 8.4 OS and "freeze" all future OS updates. Can you provide detailed step by step instructions on how users can take up option 2? Many thanks TJRL 7x CR100, 2x CR200, 1x ZP80, 7x ZP100, 1x iPod Dock, 1x Boost, 4x Play 1, 3x Play 3, 2x Play 5, 1x PlayBar & 1x Sub.

Does anyone know how or if we can return to an earlier version of the controller app? This is an older kindle but still works and it's the most convenient way for me to use my Sonos. Worked fine until Friday.

shuffle missing after update?

Yes it would be great if Sonos developed a Apple Watch app! WE invest in the sonos product and should have the best up to date compatibility with our devices! Come on sonos don't let us down!

SONOS is a great system but I can't believe they has not developed an App to Apple Watch. I would like SONOS listen all people are happy with their products but demand more from them. In this case, an App to control the system from the iWatch. Please leave your comment and add you to this request

Hi! We have recently got a Sonos system in our office. When someone plays a track via Spotify that I like, I have been hitting 'Save to Your Music' in the controller UI. I now want to go back and play some of them, but I can't work out where they are actually saved. I'm using a Mac. Thanks!

Does it matter what speaker I group on? I've got 5 zones and a connect, which is plugged into the router. Very often, I want to play the same thing on all speakers, so when I group I use the same speaker as the one I group on. But I also know that the interference around some of my speakers is greater than others. I've reduced my dropouts significantly but would like to eliminate them completely. So should I be more discerning about the lead speaker?

Can't get the Samsung Q9F TV remote to control the volume of the sonos soundbar. Help?

Hi Could someone help me with how to play different songs in different rooms. I have play ones in three rooms and I want to play kids music in one while I listen to music in another. Thanks

Does anyone know if there is a way to turn off shuffle and repeat as default playback settings? I looked in the settings but could not find it. It's very annoying that every time I want to listen to an album, I have to go into the player and turn these features off immediately and then restart playback at Track 1. I would rather be able to set the default playback mode to once only and in album order. Thanks!

Hi I have noticed an issue/bug on my sonos since upgrading the controller and play speakers to 8.2 (build 39247040). I have a play 1,5 and playbar. This issue occurs on any of the speakers. I have alarms setup for a track to come on at different times in the day on different speakers. Basicallly the 1 track is formed into a sonos playlist. I then setup the alarms to play the sonos playlist. The time comes and it successfully plays the playlist however i am finding that since 8.2 its now keeps repeating the track once it finishes whereas in previous software versions it would just play the track in the playlist once. There is only 1 track that i want it to play and that is all that exists in the sonos playlist. I have tried to delete the alarms and recreate but this hasnt worked. I have played around with alarm duration and set this to no limit and tried different things on alarm settings but it hasnt helped. Has anyone see this issue? Is there a way to resolve this?

Sometimes I start listening music from one sonos in one room and then it happens to move to another room and I want to add the sonos in that room to the flow. What I have to do is to use the app but I think it would be nice to just be able to press one of the buttons to add that sonos to the group. For example: press for 2 seconds the button play/mute to do the trick. Is it possible to add that feature? thanks a lot in advance for the feedback.

Could you add a 'fade in' option with an adjustable time limit to the Sonos alarm, so that over the specified time period, the sonos component would gradually increase its volume to that set as the alarm. This would allow a 'gentler' wake up. Could also have an option of either beginning to play music at the time you specify, or to have reached full volume by the specified time.

Cortana isn't just on the Harmon and Kardon invoke speaker. It is also for Windows PC's, XBox's, iOS, and Android and window phones and hopefully Apple tvOS some day, to name a few platforms. Cortana isn't just a narrow speaker platform but the backbone of the windows eco system. Please consider adding it as a global Cortana Skill don't just limit your view to the one speaker. Thank you.

Good Day All, just got my first Sonos Play 5 and I'm loving it!! now to the question, will the Sonos app be available for android tv?? I have a Sony Bravia XBR65930E. Thanks for the help.

Bought cr100 controller on ebay unable to connect to system tried with Sonos bridge and play 5 any suggestions many thanks

After sonos forced a v8 update last night, no choice to just carry on without updating, Sonophone on GPM home screen is just white with lines on ipod touch 4th gen. All the favourites i made with GPM still work ok. Anybody else experiencing this?

I've had problems in the past when I couldn't reset my CR200. I've tried pulling the battery, and still the CR200 won't charge in its cradle - the orange light lights up, but doesn't blink, the controller doesn't turn on, and the controller seemingly doesn't charge. I've had this happen in the past, and tech help by phone provided a specific keystroke pattern with the buttons to reset it or start it up. Can someone please let me know that sequence please? Thanks.

Please fix the new UI so it is easier to identify my devices and favorites on IOS. The old UI was extremely easy to identify my devices - the new one is horrible - at best...

I have been going back and forth with Sonos Support for over a month on getting my rebate coupon for my three CR-100s and it essentially is me saying "I didn't get it." and them saying "Check your e-mail again." With a short interlude of "I'm going to be out of the office and I'll have someone else tell you to check your e-mail again until I return." to liven things up. I resubmitted my data via the web form as well as providing it directly to the support person via e-mail but still no coupon. I get my other mail from Sonos with no problem but just in case I provided alternate e-mail addresses to try. That suggested option got no response from Sonos. I finally broke down and called support and spent 15 minutes on hold. While there is a call-back option it is very hard to activate, I don't know if the LOUD blaring hold music that makes you hold the phone well away from your ear overwhelming my key press or if the time window that the key press will be accepted is very small
